how they live a normal life? (to live, actor, street, school)

I am wondering how the pornstars live a normal life?

[ExPit]

They sure don't have to spend hours of their lives
scouring singles bars or personal ads for sex, so I
would think that leaves ample time for gardening,
and bake sales, and charity drives at the church.

LOL, that is no joke at all

In New York, I made friends with a classy lady who was regular for the Sunday service. She was hyper-attractive in every sense.

We became "very good" friends and even started to do some work together.

After several days she landed the bomb, "I'm a stripper"

I just landed on the ground, crashing

Yeah, not that a stripper is necessarily doing porn,
but if the economy gets any worse we may find all
kinds of unlikely types going off the beaten path, so
to speak. I once had a few dates with a killin' Italian
chick. Thought that meant something to me, at the
time, familiar culture and old-school values. Got to be
"very good" friends with her, as you say, and she had
a bomb shell for me too; she was a hooker, not of the
street walking variety, but nevertheless a provider of
sex for a fee. As flattered as I was at first, by the notion
that a pro would put away her rate card for a while and
entertain me for free, I just couldn't get comfortable on a
road so well-traveled.

Well, Ron Jeremy seems like a normal dude, down to the big belly and all.

Maybe he will chime in here??

I sat next to Ron on a flight from LAX to Miami. Although I'm sure everyone on the plane knew who he was, he was polite and never did anything "weird". He seemed very normal and we actually had some small chit chat - none of it involving porn or anything like that.

There really should not be any reason they should not be able to live a normal life. Its just a job.

I know the feeling, lol. But had I been single, I'd have even fallen in love with her. She was a class act. So, it never really went into romantic situations. I enlisted her in some of the charity groups in the church and she was very sincere in it.

She was also a very nice soul. Since you must have seen me a lot in the movies forum, let me dig out an old post I wrote regarding her. It's here:

She cheered me up in my tough times. And she looked more normal than the rest of the church goers. She didn't have that feeling of guilt at all, or perhaps she did and I didn't dig deeper.

But she asked me after she told the news, "so you're gonna judge me now, am I condemned?"

lol.......... I was just standing, did someone just drive a nail into my tongue

Point is, these people can be VERY normal. I dunno of porn stars though, because the media exposure is another matter. And, this experience has put my mind in a totally different state with respect to strippers and sex workers - I used to shrug them off before.

LOL that's funny.

In LA there is the radio station 106.7 Kroq and the guys on the radio were joking around about him and he called in about 5 min later. I don't know if it was set up at all but it seemed kind of funny.

I watched some biography about him. He wants to be a legit actor so bad it's kind of sad really. I think most people in porn never really cross over like they want to.
